How to remove unused imports in Intellij IDEA on commit?

Is there a way to remove unused imports in Intellij IDEA on commit?

It's not very optimal to do it manually, CTRL + ALT + O helps, but it's still manual.

Now you also have the option to just search for unused imports

Code -> Analyze Code -> Run Inspection by Name.
Unused Import
Whole Project

If you want to use CTRL + Alt + L (remove unused imports while formatting code), you can use CTRL + Alt + Shift + L (once) and there is a checkbox in the popup you should check

To remove the unused imports in windows. please use the default key combination below.

CTRL + ALT + O ---> to remove the unused imports in windows.

However, you can also change the keymap of "Optimize Imports" in settings.

In Mac IntelliJ IDEA, the command is Cmd + Option + O

For some older versions it is apparently Ctrl + Option + O.

(Letter O not Zero 0) on the latest version 2019.x

File/Settings/Inpsections/Imports and change "Unused import" to Error. This marks them more clearly in the Inspections gutter and the Inspection Results panel.

Or you can do the following shortcut :

MAC : Shift + Command + A (Enter Action menu pops up)

And write : Optimize Imports

In IntelliJ, select the project you want to optimize imports on, go to Code menu and choose Optimize imports and a small Optimize Imports popup window will appear. On the popup window you need to click on Run button. Or alternatively, on IntelliJ on Mac, you can use a keyboard short cut Option + Command + O

If you are using IntelliJ IDEA or Android Studio:

Android optimize imports

Go to Settings > Editor > General >Auto Import and check the Optimize imports on the fly checkbox.

Choose the project/module you want to remove unused import from in Project view. Then from Code menu choose Optimize imports and confirm with Run. The imports will be cleaned in whole project/module.
